Yesterday, the official trailer of actor Will Smith’s latest fitness documentary “Best Shape of My Life” was released on YouTube.

“When I started this show, I thought my physical condition was reaching the best state in my life, but mentally, I was not like that. I finally discovered a lot of secret things about myself,” Smith said.
After experiencing a physically and mentally challenging year of the epidemic, Smith started a high-intensity physical exercise to get himself back to his ideal physical state.
He began to question the behavior behind his success.

In the trailer for “Best Shape of My Life”, Smith not only exercises, but also writes a book.
He said that the book “Will” “exposed my life and many things that people don’t know.”
The actor also mentioned his “the only time in my life that I ever considered suicide.” moment with his family.
